that grape god looks like a winner each time i see an example. i have a few different grape flavors in flower right now actually. purps, grape ape, and a NL pheno that smells grapey.
wait, its grapefruit thats in the GG isnt it? i geuss my Grapefruit krush seed may not be too far different than that one... ive even been considering it.

We have a fine grower among us who is an amputee already! :) I'll let him chime in if he feels like it.

QUESTION PEOPLE OF CANADA.
My friends Mum has cancer and my friend has been reading up on Simpsons Oil and wants to try and get her Mum some. We may try and make some here as I have a whole bag of fan leaves I need to use for something. But if there are any sources in Canada please let me know so I can pass on the information. Many thanks, DST

yea i had a brainfart. i knew that and remembered half way thru the post. the grapefruit krush is pre98bubba x grapefruit. i imagine the effects are at least similar, if not more than that. and yeah im sure its not grape, even tho the name is mis-leading. one of those strains ive always wanted and never got tho, the grapegod i mean. hell i dont want any more grape strains now... i have two that put out purple buds and have a nice grape flavor. one sweet like kool aid, and the other is sour like real grape juice. they are honestly great, money making, good head stash, high yielding, easy to grow strains too. maybe i need to get some of that spray shit to make fem seeds outta the two to work with.
id give em to yall to tinker with too. honestly i may already have one u guys MIGHT want, if that "black ape" doesnt turn out to be hermie prone in the right conditions. i screwed up my little test of them, so i gave my buddy the mother of the best one. we shall see what happens. honestly ive never had a plant stink like it does, and be so damn greasy to the touch on the stems. so im pretty sure its gonna be good, still got some work to do with it first tho

im certainly no breeder, but i hate to let good genes go.

The grapegod finishes early, yields well, and it smells/looks great. It is something I would throw in the same category as like c99 or something.

im excited as hell about my Psycho killer tho. certainly most anxious to smoke that outta everything i have started atm. im tempted to pop some more BB beans, but i honestly need to use some of my older ones up... some are getting a few years old now. hard decision, i have such a hard time making this damn decision. im tempted to gamble on a couple each of the engineers and cheese suprise. my luck id be filling up my veg space with males tho, i need more space.

any of those engineers buds smoke yet? mmm.... bet its killer.

right on. i know exactly what u mean by that. finish early is always nice too. critical+ is great in all those categories too. just wish it had better tolerance education. u cant keep smoking it after a while cuz it just stops getting u high. too bad. maybe some grapegod x critical+ is in the future some day :) id be thrilled!

im out... but ponder this for a bit. for some reason its driving me nuts. (im probably just nuts anyways tho)
i see that a lot of people on RIU dont agree with me about waiting until the stems snap on the dry. ive tried both ways and im certainly sold on stems snapping, as are many experienced growers(jorge, rosenthal, danko, etc...).
i think the buds honestly are less prone to go bad on you that way, as long as u actually cure them for a few weeks properly in a jar after that. then if u leave a bud out over night and it dries a bit more, it seems to have less of an overall effect on quality for example. where as if it was still slightly more moist, it would be a bigger change, and might really lose a lot of flavor if you dont catch it fast enough.
but its certainly VERY easy to go past the prime moment to jar from the time the stems start to snap. i really think thats why people who stick to the bending side of it choose to do so over waiting till snap. i geuss it could get awfully techincal too, all sorts of possible variables. i just know WAY too many buds i see need a day or two more drying.

Yeah I generally leave them a bit squishy for a couple months, and then when I feel they're cured enough I dry them up more. I know in tobacco they actually raise the temps up after they have been dried/cured to kill the remaining biological processes going on within the leaves so it stops breaking them down. We obviously can't do that in buds though.

I just got to my girls and my scrog ones are looking amazing but the DWC WAS getting better. Leaves where getting color again and all was well. The PH was at 7.0 and I brought it down to 6.0 PH. Here is a pic of her with the 7.0 PH. IDK that PH would cause it to droop. It is in a DWC and there is 5 gal of water in there so there is no shortage of water. Any thoughts as to why these fan leaves are drooping please let me know. Thank you!

Looks like they are not taking up any water. How do the stems feel? I have not much clue about dwc/hydro but if it was me I would change everything in your res/tub and start with fresh water. Maybe even hose some water over the roots...but it looks fairly drastic. Sorry, can't be of much positive help.

Okay guyz thanks for the feedback, I'll say $50 first and see what happens? but will do $75 max.

Man got a another Breeders Boutique strain-freebie pack, showing it's colors and smell. Strain is Psycho iller x herijuana x Cheese (uk)? Fucken smells so, so, good, like sweet cheese(candy with a stink of) cheese. really sticky too! looks like a blue tent to it to under the hps. So glad I kept clones of that strain!

I've never seen drooping like that. How do the actual roots look? I would guess either some sort of root ailment or really off ph? That's very strange. Like D said, change the water, just run them on 5.8 ph water for a few days.

Your ph is way to high for hydro. You want to be in the 5.2-5.6 range. She is not taking up what is needed bro. I'd flush your res and lower your ph and see how things go bro.

hey guys, I got my 600w ballast in and when i hooked it up and plugged it in i heard a "pop" sound and then the ballast was dead. figured it was a bunk ballast so i returned it and got a new one. well the new one did the same thing. so now im thinking it isnt the ballast but maybe something else, or maybe im just getting a bad batch of ballasts......i dunno.

apollo horticultre ballast, 600w dimmable switchable digital ballast.

any thoughts or help would be great. i have tried firing MH and HPS bulbs in the ballast and nothing is working. i was thinking i may have a short in the hood and blowing the fuse but i cant seem to locate the fuse in the ballast to see if it is fried.

figure i would ask here sence most of you run 600w ballasts and may know a bit about them.
